Re: GREECE 2016

This video is mostly for greek fans of Eurovision.
You will like it. :)


With so many great songs it is unfair that Greece only won once. BTW, Russians made some covers of the Greek Eurovision songs

Re: GREECE 2016

It is true that Greece is not what we call jury-friendly country in ESC.
Before 1998, we had only 2 top5 results.
And from 2009 and on, we have never been into top10 of juries. :)

Mathima solfege cover from 1978
[MENTION=5532]GRE[/MENTION] I think none of the Eastern countries were (or still are) jury-friendly. Look at Turkey, Russia, Yugoslavia.

Re: GREECE 2016

Kirkorov has covers from nearly everywhere.From Dana International

Oh don't remind me of the fabulousness of his "Diva" cover if you don't want me passing out from excitement.

He recorded the song in Russian, English, Hebrew and Spanish (this particular version was pretty popular in Mexico) :lol:

The Spanish version may be my favorite.

musA y estrella :lol:

You like Kirkorov?

Definitely! And I was livid when Channel One snubbed his co-composition with Meladze for this year. A dream team like Polina/Kirkorov/Meladze would've had a hard time missing out on my top 10 if their previous work is anything on which to go.

But the results with Swedes was also good. Did you hear all his Eurovision covers like :il: 1991, Melodifestivalen 2009, etc.?

Re: GREECE 2016

Rallia Xristidou with a ballad similar to this one would be awesome as well:
It's a ballad, but a very strong and emotional one.

But she probably wouldn't be interested at all. :(

Re: GREECE 2016

It was composed before "Ethniki Ellados" (great series, btw). Yorgos Kapoutzidis asked Koza Mostra to use their song!

And yeah, it would be great to see Elias Kozas and his friends back to ESC in the future! ;)

Re: GREECE 2016

Yeah, I know it was composed before "Ethniki Ellados", but I'm watching the 2nd episode of the series at the moment, and it reminded me of this song. ;) The series is indeed great, and Smaragda Karidi is just a fabulous actress!
I want Koza Mostra once again for Greece! xcheer

Re: GREECE 2016

I hope we won't meet a Greek ballad once again. Greece is not meant to send ballad songs. Keep your uptempo, Greece. You do it amazing.
